If you're not comfortable with carrying a loaded gun, then you really haven't taken to heart the idea of treating every gun as if it's loaded. Think about it: you treat a gun you know is loaded differently from one you know is unloaded but "treat as if it's loaded".jeeperbryan wrote:All your thoughts/ideas are appreciated I've grown up around guns my entire life. However, the idea of carrying a gun for self-defense is relatively new to me, last year or so. I've always been taught to treat every gun as if it were loaded, check and double check the chamber of any gun you are handed, don't point a gun at something you don't intend to shoot, and don't put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot. So I'm going to have to get accustomed to carrying loaded.
Would you feel differently if it was a double action revolver? Many revolvers have shorter and/or lighter triggers than the P3AT.I've been racking my brain about it and I simply have no comfort level with the P3AT.
